    Technical Analysis Update

    Wiz Research disclosed CodeBreach, a critical AWS CodeBuild misconfiguration in the pull-request trigger path that let untrusted pull requests bypass an unanchored ACTOR_ID regex, run privileged builds, steal GitHub credentials from build memory, and gain control of core AWS GitHub repositories including aws/aws-sdk-js-v3; AWS said it anchored the affected regex filters, revoked exposed credentials, and added the Pull Request Comment Approval build gate.
